What not to wear, What to wear

Our first MOPS was a success. What a fun way to start the year, with our Steering Team participating in the Mom version of What Not To Wear. We saw some great outfits and some not so great outfits, but through it all we got too see a little bit of every mom in our fashionably and not fashionably challenged Moms.

We got to make a fun craft to help remind us when every MOPS meeting is with a notepad/calendar magnet for our fridges. It was a pleasure to see everyone's faces today and get to meet some new amazing ladies.

Don't forget to make sure to register for MOPS this year, the fee is $23.95 and gets you a subscription to MomSense Magazine, a magnet, luggage tag, tote bag and bumper sticker.

Thanks again to all the ladies who attended and for a great start to a new MOPS year.

Also, mark your calendars, Parent's night out is October 8. It will consist of bowling at Dallas Lanes and a dessert potluck afterwards.

MOPS meetings...

Childcare is provided for birth to 5 years old by our happy workers and they look forward to attending to your children so you can have a break. Learn and laugh with other moms with young kids.

Returning moms: the meeting cost is $2. If you are new to MOPS, worried about what to expect, please come and let us welcome you -- your first meeting is free! A one-time fee of $23.95 pays for the MOPs International membership and includes a subscription to MOMsense magazine, weekly emails, and a book.

MOPS is the second and fourth Tuesday of every month, from September to May.

MOPS is about:

Be encouraged and equipped in building a strong home foundation.

MOPS International exists to meet the needs of every mom, urban, suburban and rural moms, stay-at-home and working moms, teen, single and married moms - moms with different lifestyles who all share a similar desire to be the very best moms they can be! MOPS recognizes that the years from infancy through kindergarten are foundational in a mother child relationship and are filled with unique needs.

The Dallas MOPS group meets on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of every month, September to May, at 8:45am. At each meeting, moms make new friends, share experiences, laugh together and learn Biblical principles pertaining to womanhood and parenting. We enjoy breakfast together, listen to a great speaker and make a fun craft while our kids have a blast participating in their own age appropriate program.
